Chapter 56 The Experience of Six Trees in the Desert
July 28 was a hot day, and in the afternoon the sun seemed to turn into Nezha's hot wheels, and people with hot air did not dare to go out. The chirping birds on the vines were also shut, and the only sound was the slow, even breathing of me lying on the mat. Every time I get up and pour a glass of cold water, I am cautious, for fear that I will heat myself up if I move too much.
At four o'clock, the sun hung in the sky. The door creaked, and the son and nephew ran in. The son came in and said, "It's too hot." ”
"Hot, you're still running around! Look at the sweat on your head. I said.
"How can the little doll do it if she doesn't run, and if she doesn't run, she will die in a hurry!"
"What's the hurry?"
"My brother and I want to play with the computer, can we not be in a hurry?"
"What's the hurry, it's not that you won't be allowed to play. ”
"It's a waste of time if it's slow!"
As my son and nephew walked to the back room, I subconsciously said, "Joy, do you want to know what kind of heat is really hot?"
"Think," the son said, looking back, "it's really hot outside, isn't it?"
"It's hot outside, but not really hot. If you go camping with Six Trees tomorrow, you'll know what real heat is. ”
"Where are the six trees?"
"Walk through the desert park, about 3 kilometers east into the heart of the desert, where there are six very thick sand date trees, and there is an oasis there, but it's fun, will you go?" I looked at my son, who frowned and opened and closed his lips silently. When I saw him worried, I said, "Only the bravest child would dare to conquer this sandy road." ”
"I'll go. The son said.
"I'll go too. The nephew said.
My nephew is also going, which surprises me a lot. It seems that children are always interested in new things, but whether they can have persistence and regularity is the big question. I said:
"You're all little heroes. Well, that's it, and we'll leave at six o'clock tomorrow morning. ”
They laughed at each other and went to play games in the back room, and I secretly rejoiced that my son was becoming more and more accepting of camping life. At the same time, I also felt that this camping was very strange, and it was a completely subconscious decision. I knew very well what the desert was like in the heat, and I had to be prepared.
At five o'clock, I was in the living room making sand baskets for camping. The son saw it and asked, "Dad, what are you doing?"
"I'm working on a desert boat, and I'm going to have to carry a lot of stuff tomorrow, and I can't rely on people's backs. ”
My son curiously squatted on the ground and with me. He kept asking this and that, trying to figure out what was going on with the ship in the desert, but he couldn't figure it out...... As for the experience of this camping, it can be reflected from this article published by my son later:
One day during the summer vacation, my brother and my dad and I decided to go camping at Six Trees, a small oasis deep in the desert. Early in the morning, we set off with a sand boat loaded with belongings.
At the beginning, we faced the morning breeze and had a special feeling in our hearts when we stepped on the sand ridge. But as soon as the sun appeared, the weather changed, and at 9 o'clock I saw six trees not far away, and I really wanted to rush over, but it was too hot for me to dare to rush.
Dad built the pergola, and I felt a little more at ease.
"Little bird, little bird," the brother suddenly shouted. Before I could figure out what was going on, I jumped out with my brother and chased after a few places before I saw the little bird. Unexpectedly, the little guy was very clever, hiding from all over the place, and finally caught it, and the two of us were already sweating. Back under the pergola, I quickly took out something delicious and fed the bird, but it wouldn't eat it. We couldn't care about it that much, and we played a fun game with it. I was having fun when I heard a squeaky sound from the trees. Dad said, "Little Bird's mom and dad are going to have a baby." "Although we were extremely reluctant, we still let the bird go under the guidance of my father. When the little bird disappeared into the green grass, the big bird in the tree flew over. Dad said that birds have emotions just like humans, and I didn't believe it at first, but now I really believe it.
After lunch, there was no wind at all, and the sun was really strong. I drank vigorously under the tree, and the sweat on my body seemed to be audible, and neither of us was willing to move more. It was more than 6 o'clock, and we were running out of water, and my father said that we had to return.
Halfway through, dark clouds began to rise in the west. After a while, the yin wind swooped down with water vapor and spun around on the ground vigorously, as if looking for something. The raised sand flew wildly. My leg felt like it was being pricked with needles. Dad made a shaking shed out of cloth sheets, and we were in it together, holding each other and moving forward with difficulty.
Somehow, the rain suddenly drove the wind away, and it became arrogant and fell down vigorously. We hurriedly found a large artemisia to build a shelter to shelter from the rain. Less leaning, a thunderclap, startled me goosebumps. But after a torrential rain, for some reason, there was no rain in the sky and thunder, so we hurriedly packed up our things and hurried away. When I climbed the high sand mountain and looked westward, the sight of a mountain dancing silver snake in the distance between the clouds and the sunny sky made my heart swell with an indescribable feeling.
After walking for a while, above my head, the wind was beautiful in the west, and the dark clouds were rolling in the east, and the scene was amazing. Dad said we experienced a violent thunderstorm. Looking at the wind, rain, thunder, and lightning in the distance, I laughed loudly. My dad asked me why I was laughing, and I said, "I used to say that adults say three changes a day, I don't know what they're talking about, but now you say that five changes a day is not enough!"
This camping session really gave me a lot of knowledge.
